[a]For high-strength bolts subjected to tensile fatigue loading, see Appendix 3. [b] For nominal tensile strength it is permitted to use the tensile stress area of the threaded rod or bolt multi- plied by the specified minimum tensile stress of the rod or bolt material, in lieu of the tabulated values based on a nominal tensile stress area of 0.75 times the gross area. The tensile stress area shall be calculated in accordance with the applicable ASTM standard.

  • in accordance with the applicable ASTM standard. [c]For end-loaded connections with a fastener pattern length greater than 38 in. (950 mm), FnvF_{n v} shall be reduced to 83.3% of the tabulated values. Fastener pattern length is the maximum distance parallel to the line of force between the centerline of the bolts connecting two parts with one faying surface.
  • force between the centerline of the bolts connecting two parts with one laying surface. [4]For ASTM A307 bolts, the tabulated values shall be reduced by 1% for each 1/16 in. (2 mm) over five diam- eters of length in the grip.
  • eers or length in the grp. [e]Threads assumed and permitted in shear planes in all cases.
  • Threads assumed and permitted in shear planes in all cases. [1] The transition area of Group 200 bolts is considered part of the threaded section.
